trailing to Cmmrrce, r and are very much inclined
to magnify our resources for it ; and, not finding the

The second charge against the Address, is, that
it represents North Carolina to be in a deplorable
condition, (it being still the eve of the Hanover
Committee lo render the. Addreaa odious.)" We
do indeed conf' ss bur axtcmiidiinerrt at the tecklexs
nr of this charge. -Is the Address cold on the
subject of w hat is laudalde in tlie State ? Is it
inward of praise lo whatever is good or great or
terms of the most hearty adiiuration, the extent of
our uoble donutin, our benignant climate, our wise
nuinenmas intelligent, moral, aud uxluxtrious peotde,
and txir military and Revohitiunary glory,- and our
national rank r-.Tbesn. our ptiymcal, moral, Irgal
aixl political, blessiuga are described in tbe Address
wjjJu.a fccvor of. loeUiig ami Uiiguage (may we.be
pnidooed I for saying) not altogether unworthy, o
tlxi theiue. v Tlie North Carolinian whom this
does not satisfy is somewhat iixwliate of praise,
aixl he who xhull say more, will give reason
to believe that '' be is not out of those sturdy mo
ralists wilhja hoin ttxa love ot' country ispoapoued

In tbe an me tisie, the Hanover Committee pre
for, as a charge ugainst tbe Central Address, that
in it the natural advantages f North Carolina'
are disparaged aud, uavmg forgotten to nutka
proot ol the charge when it was made, they veiy
necessarily, as we think, add a schedule of text iirxxiy
at "tlie eiiJ' of their publication. A reference to the
retutatioti of the preceding charge, ill shew that
tins same scncduie is a little one-sided. .ior is
the ti-xtimonv to the punxixc for which it is ad
duced. It is itxleed suid, in tlie Address, but in
guanled and ciHx?iliiitory terms, that with tracts
